Sponsored by:	Pfizer
Information provided by:	Pfizer
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00625833

Purpose

This is a trial to investigate the effectiveness and safety of [S,S]-Reboxetine in relieving chronic peripheral pain suffered by patients with diabetes.

Some evidence for the effectiveness of [S,S]- Reboxetine in relieving chronic pain has been seen in 3 completed trials.
